Brad Young (4 Wind Flutes) is auctioning a flute with the proceeds going to help out Randy/Shelly Stenzel of Feather Ridge Flutes - please spread the word ...
While this flute is a collectors item, it is museum quality, but that would be a waste to not be heard. Like the White Buffalo Pipe, it should have a caretaker...
Keith, Greg, Bob Tiesberg, Chuck, Mike, Bob Egner, Ed, Bob Stenger, Val and Ronald, Absolutely an indredible work of Art. I don't have the vocabulary, so all...

How awesome and how awe inspiring! This act of collaboration from the heart and hand truely reflects the spirit put in to the art and craft of NAF builders...
When one looks at this magnificent work of art and then looks at those who, from all across the Native Flute community, came together to make this happen, one...
Christmas is coming fast.Why not make it a special one to remember.When all said and done and the decorations come off the tree make a flute out of it.I would...
I appreciate the range of ways that people incorporate the Native American Flute into their spiritual practices. I also appreciate the naturalistic sounds I...
Good observations Cindy: I am always facinated with the fact that one flute can sound so radically different when played by several individuals. Quite often at...
Great Idea Hawkeye's. I'm looking forward to seeing the Christmas tree flutes. Hopefully everyone in the group sacrifices a tree for Christmas. Even though we...
Not a bad idea Hawkeyes. I'm thinking if one is predisposed to kill a tree to hang the ornaments on it would be good to honor it afterwards in this way. If...
Good evening all, I now know first hand what Bob Running Bear meant when he said he could feel the power of the prayers songs being played for him to help him...
Great idea Val.....and this from a fellow who at his job has access to pretty much any kind of lumber that he wants! You never cease to amaze me with your...

I have all the materials to build a PVC flute with the exception of the plug. Where is everyone getting their cork or other plug material from. I have read...
Home Depot, Lowes, any decent sized hobby store and maybe even Target/Walmart may have the cork tiles for making your own bulletin board. The come in packages...
You are not limited to cork, you know. I've made pvc flutes using a sanded down dowell rod glued in place, and I've also used 3 pieces of 1/4" thick rubber,...
To get you by for now, send me your address, and I will slip a piece of the cork board into an envelope for you. Or if you are using 3/4 pipe, I will go ahead...
Thanks for the info. I would have never thought that Lowes would have corks but they do. I should have asked when I was getting the PVC. Donn, Thanks for the...
Rex, Don't pay for a cork when there are thousands available to you for free. Wineries, Wine Bars or Tasting Rooms will give you bags of them if you ask. Most...
I can confirm that the density of the corks used for wines is high enough that it is best to find/use a #7 size for use in a 3/4" PVC tube. #8 or #9 would be a...
I have used Big Red Gum and it still smells like gum evan after six years and is still holding strong. I used two dowells from each end to place the Big Red...
Someone in the group advised me that number 7 wine corks would work. I bought some straight sided 7 and they work perfectly in the 3/4 pipe ... From:...
